Loving Lord, thank You for the wonderful example of Your life, which was lived in spirit and truth. A life that demonstrated love as well as justice, a life that cared for all humanity, especially those who were weak or hurting or marginalised, or those who were sinking into a pit of despair or poverty.

Be close to all who are feeling the bitter winds of depression and scarcity their lives and uphold them with the warming breath of Your love and grace. Keep us we pray, from making wrong judgements about those that are suffering affliction or who have been overtaken by the challenges of poverty. Give us a wider perspective on life and a heart of compassion and kindness, especially on those that feel alone, unloved or uncared for.

May we become Your eyes and ears and may Your heart of love and grace flow through us to those that are in need. Look down in pity on all who are suffering loss, poverty or unjust discrimination at this time, and we pray that in Your best time Your justice will prevail in each of their lives. Thank You, Lord. We ask this in the name of Jesus,

Amen.

Loving Lord, I just want to lift up my dear friend to You, who has been such a comfort and strength to me for so many years, but who has at last been admitted to a hospice where she is to pass her final few weeks of life in dignity and respect, as her life drains from her. Lord, I know that I am going to miss her so much.

Be with her Lord, every moment of the day and night. Thank You Father, that she is to be looked after in such a caring and understanding environment. Be with the staff who are to attend her as her life flows from her and Lord, I pray that she would be very aware of Your very presence with her, every moment of the day.

Lord, I know that she is ready and longing to meet You face to face, and I ask that You would keep her free from the pain and suffering that so often stalks the advancement of death. But praise God that the grave has lost its terrible sting and death has lost its victory, through the death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. Praise Your holy name! 

Lord, I know that I am going to miss my dear friend, but my sadness has such a wonderful tinge of hope and joy, for I know that soon we will all be together in Your company, where we will be free from all sickness and sadness, and You will wipe away every tear from our eyes. Thank You Lord, in Jesus' name,

Amen.

“Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me, even if he dies, will live.”
(John 11:25)

Lord, thank You for friends and friendships and for the wonderful way that we have been designed by You to interact and compliment each other, and to be there to quietly support and encourage in times of sadness as well as joy. Father, I do thank You for this very special friend that you brought into my life at a time when he was most needed, and for the close bond of fellowship that has been growing between us ever since.

Lord, I lift up this treasured friend of mine and thank You for the great blessing that he has been in my life, and for the wisdom and discernment that You have been gracious to bestow on him. I praise You for the way that You have been using and moulding him, training and equipping him, preparing and strengthening him to carry out Your plans and purposes in his life, to Your praise and glory.

Thank You for his faithful witness, personal testimony, understanding heart and spirit of encouragement, and thank You Father, for the unique contribution he is making to the furtherance of Your kingdom. May he grow in grace and in a knowledge of the Lord Jesus and may he be enfolded in Your love and peace and hear You say, "well done good and faithful servant." In Jesus' name,

Amen.

Dear Lord, my boyfriend is an alcoholic and I am so concerned for him. I love him and have tried everything I can think of to get him to turn away from drink, but he takes no notice and I know that things are getting worse. He seems to be getting more and more depressed and I fear for his health and his own safety and even my own safety too.

Lord I have seen the devastation that alcohol can do in families and in relationships, and I want to help him through this - but in my heart I know that there is nothing more that I can do, unless he is prepared to face his alcoholic addiction himself.

Lord show me what to do and I pray that You Who knows the hearts of all men would convict him of his sin and need of Jesus. Lord I love him and don’t want this to drive us apart. Give me the wisdom to know what to do and the grace to do what is best for us all. This I ask in Jesus name,

Amen

Loving Lord, You said that it is not good for a man to be alone and Lord I have been alone for a long time. Father, You know that a number of friendships have ended in disaster and Lord I want my life to be completely given to You, for I love You Lord. Lord, I come to You empty-handed and pray that You would bring a special girl into my life, as my heart yearns for someone with whom I can share my life.

Help me to be patient in waiting and not to grow weary of seeking Your face in this matter. Father, I pray that You would bring a girl into my life that loves You with all of her heart. Place Your hand of blessing on her at this very moment I pray, and may she be a woman after Your own heart. 

Lord, I know that nothing is impossible with You, but Lord, I also ask in humility of heart that Your will be done in my life. Lord, give me the grace to trust You in all things, and the peace to live a life that is pleasing to You. In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

Re :padipadi, if you do not want to be open to this prayer , it is your personal thing, myGod is always open. Amen.

Eternal Father, You created us in Your own image and likeness, but sin has warped the minds of men, and throughout the world there is much injustice and much carelessness of the rights of other people and personal responsibility.

Lord, when You are excluded from the hearts and consciences of men, the inevitable result is that people suffer and Lord, there is much injustice and corruption taking place in our world today, not only in the lives of individuals but also in the corridors of power and the council rooms of many nations.

We pray Lord, that You will right all the wrongs that are taking place in our world and vindicate those that are being treated unjustly. Keep us Father, from trying to take matters into our own hands for vengeance is Your and You will repay. But Lord, in Your grace and mercy, we pray that you would give justice and peace to all those that have been cruelly and unfairly treated by their fellow man, and may the injustice and carelessness that they have had to endure be the means to draw them into Your saving arms of grace. We ask this in the precious name of the Lord Jesus,

Amen.

Dear Lord Jesus, You were the One that came to seek and to save that which was lost, and Lord there are many lost and hurting people in our world today that are having to comply with unjust government measures and rogue governors, whose decisions often leads to intense misery and pain. Be gracious to all who have been unjustly treated by unfair measures, and look down on them in pity and mercy I pray. Provide for all their needs, according to Your riches in mercy.

Turn the hearts of those leaders who have set aside godly principles, and who in their pride have followed a path of selfishness and greed back to You. And Father, in Your grace, I ask that You would intervene and show mercy on those that are being harmed and abused by their policies

Keep us Lord, from trying to address the ills of this world from a human perspective, for we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities and power, against the spiritual rulers of this dark world. But thanks be to God Who has won the victory over them all, through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Lord I know that You are coming back soon to right all wrongs and to wipe away all tears from our eyes, and so I place all the injustice on today’s world before You asking that in Your time and in Your way You would right all the wrongs. In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

Loving Father, I just want to thank You for my state of singleness. I know that at times I have longed (to a greater or lesser degree) to be married. But Lord, as I reflect on my life and the amazing privileges and grace that You have given to me in my single status, I realise that I would not have it any other way and just want to praise and thank You for all that You are doing in my life today and the way that You have led me to this point.

Lord, increasingly I understand what Paul was talking about when he said that those that are single should remain single if they are able to cope with their physical and emotional desire to be with another person. Lord, it certainly is my desire to grow ever closer to You and to be a witness of my wonderful Creator, who has saved my soul and made me a new creation in Christ.

There is no greater joy Lord than knowing You, and at times I know that I have wasted my time looking into things that are not wholesome and drinking from cisterns that are polluted, but You have led and guided me to this point in my life and I pray that You would continue to lead and guide me. Lord, I know that as we get older we can become concerned if we have no one to, ‘ look after’ us, but Father I just want to hand my future into Your gracious hands, knowing that as You have guided me to this point in my life that You are able and willing to support me and keep me in the years that lie ahead.

I pray that as I get older I may continue to love You more and serve You better and rely on You alone for all my needs, for You are a great God and I thank You for being my God and my Saviour, my Lord and my best Friend. Thank You in Jesus' name,

Amen.

Dear Father God, I pray that You will help every member of the Church to live in harmony with each other. May we be united in love and enable us to pray with the mind of Christ, to be guided by the Spirit of God and to glorify You with heart and voice. Keep us from worldly ways, but rather may our lives be a witness of Your love, not only in what we say but in all that we do. I ask this for the sake of Jesus Christ my Lord,

Loving Lord You are my Father and You have promised to supply all that we need according to Your riches in glory – and You know my need for a new job at this time.. and so I ask that in Your grace You would provide me with a suitable job, which would pay sufficient wages to provide for all my needs and those of my family.

Lord You told us to ask and it would be given and I have been seeking and knocking on a number of different doors and pray that You would lead me to the right place and open the right door for me. I ask that in the near future You would find me a suitable job where I can use my skills, abilities, training and experience.

I know that the job market is not good at the moment, but I also know that You are a God of miracles, Who is able to carry out the impossible in any one of our lives… and I pray that You would move speedily into my own job seeking experience, and work in a wonderful way  - and I will give You all the praise and glory, for You alone are worthy,

Amen

Dear God, neither my husband nor I were saved when we were first married and things were pretty good between us. But now Father God, I have become born again and become a new Christian, a new creation in Christ, and it is causing strife between us.

It grieves me Father, that the love we once shared has become so sour, simply because I have started to trust in the Lord Jesus as my Saviour. My husband thinks I am soppy and is not interested in anything I say about Jesus, and is starting to get quite angry about it.

Please help me Lord. Help me to be strong and help me to grow in my faith and not to give up. Help me to somehow tell my husband of the good news of the gospel of grace. I want him to know that the Lord Christ died for his sins and took the punishment that he deserved, and that He rose again on the third day and broke the power of death in the lives of believers. The gospel is so wonderful and I just long that he comes to faith too.

Please Lord, I know that nothing is impossible for You to do, and I ask that you show my husband the truth. I pray that one day soon he will be saved, like me. I pray this in Jesus' name, 

Amen.

Heavenly Father, You have filled the world with beauty and good things and we rejoice to behold the wonderful work of Your hand.

Keep me ever thankful for Your generous provision and mindful of the great sacrifice that You offered, when You gave Jesus to be the sacrifice for the sin of the world.

Thank You that I am a new creation in Christ and that He is my Lord and Saviour… by grace through faith in Him.I look forward with expectation and anticipation of the soon return of the Lord Jesus for His Church and pray that I would be ready to meet Him – My Lord and my God.

Loving Lord, we lift up our brothers and sisters that are being persecuted in so many places in our world and in so many inhumane ways. Lord, we lift up all new converts, all those who have accepted the Lord Jesus as their Saviour, knowing that they will have to face possible rejection and even persecution from family, friends and the communities in which they live.

Guide and protect them we pray, from all assaults of the enemy, in body soul and spirit. Lord, we ask that You would keep them from harm, and provide all that they need to sustain their lives. And Father, please provide the spiritual food that they need to grow in You and mature in their faith, so that their trust in You becomes strong and they are able to withstand the fiery darts of the enemy.

Give them the courage to face the future, knowing that You are with them and in them, and Father we thank You that You are growing Your church with the dear new converts to Christ. Be with them always I pray,

Amen.

Dear Lord Jesus, I thank You for my dear child, but my heart is breaking as they have left the way of truth to follow after the baubles of this world.

Lord, I remember a time when my child loved You, at least so I thought, but they have strayed far away and become like the prodigal son in the Bible, who ended up living off the dregs of this world, even when they had a rich table of grace and love, prepared by You, on which they could feast in abundance.

Bring my child back I pray. May my child recall what Jesus did for them on the cross and repent. May they turn away from their sinful way and turn back to Christ Who loves them so much. Oh Lord, bring my child back to Your fold and into fellowship with Yourself.

Thank You in Jesus name,

Amen.

Dear Lord Jesus, thank You, that You are the One Who heals the broken hearted and sets the captives free. Thank You, that You are the one that knows every intimate detail about our lives, and Who sticks closer than a brother. Thank You, Lord, that You have promised never to leave us nor forsake us but desire to give all your children the peace that passes understanding, as we look to Jesus and secure our hearts upon Him.

Thank You also, that You were the one that instituted marriage and ordained that a man should leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife, and that she in turn would honour and submit to her own husband under biblical principles. Lord, I confess that our marriage has become stale and the spark of love between us has become dim over time, so that we have become cool towards each other and careless towards You. Forgive us for allowing ourselves to slowly slide into this state of lukewarm love for each other and indifference towards You.

And so I ask for healing in our marriage and a revival of the love that we once had for each other. Help us together to seek You, and to once again build up our relationship into a happy, harmonious unity where Jesus is returned to His rightful position in our lives. Father, I confess that because we have become careless in our relationship with You, our relationship with each other also suffered. Renew a right spirit within us both, and may we seek first the Lord Jesus and His righteousness, knowing that a marriage that is grounded in Him is the only way for a relationship to truly be blessed. We ask this in Jesus' name,

Amen.

Heavenly Father, I love You and thank You for all that You have done for me. Thank You for dying for me and taking the punishment that I deserve. Father God, please help me, for when I am on my own I want to tell the whole world about You, but when I am in company with other people, I just freeze up and get so tongue-tied and am so lost for words.

I feel I am letting You down by not saying anything about You, and remaining silent, when I should be lifting up the Lord Jesus and telling everyone I meet, the message of salvation by grace through faith.

Give me courage I pray, to open my mouth and speak the truth to whomsoever I may come into contact. Release my tongue and allow me to speak forth what is in my heart, to your praise and glory. Lord, I know that without You I can do nothing, but I also believe that I can do all things through Christ Who gives me the strength and courage.

So use my life I pray, and give me the courage to be a good and faithful witness to Jesus, in word and in deed, to His praise and glory. In Jesus' name,

Amen.

Dear God, I know that this life is no more than a tiny fraction of time in the vast sea of eternity, and yet I know that I have spent too long being involved in the here and now, without properly preparing my heart for my eternal home in heaven.

Forgive me Lord, and help me to change the direction of my life and to start to live as unto You. Lord, I ask that You would help me to turn my life around, and that by Your grace You would direct my life and govern my future decisions.

Thank You, Lord, that I am Your child, by grace through faith. Thank You, that I have been raised into newness of life with Christ. Guide my priorities and help me to set my sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ is seated in the place of honour at God's right hand. Help me to set my mind on eternal things that are above, not on the temporal things of this earth, knowing that I have died with Christ, and my life is hidden with Christ in God.

Thank You, Father, for the saving me and bringing me into Your heavenly family and thank You for the gift of grace through Christ Jesus my Lord. Father, as I read through Christ’s intercessory prayer for His disciples on the night that He was betrayed, and for all who were to come to faith through their witness, I pray that I may be willing to face all the life-challenges that I may be called upon to endure in this fallen world, and pray that in the power of the Spirit I may live a godly life that glorifies Your holy name.

May the gentle strength and humble obedience of the Lord Jesus Christ become increasingly evident in my life, as I seek to submit to the leading and guiding of the Holy Spirit of truth in my daily walk, and may Christ’s deep desire to carry out Your will and to glorify Your name, become the hallmark of my life too, so that others may see the good works that You have prepared for me to do and glorify You, Father.

Father, I know that you have a plan for each of our lives, and I understand that the main desire for every one of Your children is to know Jesus more and more and to live our lives in a manner that is pleasing to You and exults Your holy name.

Father, I know that Paul reminded us that as Your children we are to know You and the power of Your resurrection, and we are to fellowship in Your sufferings. I believe that the way we cope with the various difficulties and dangers, heartaches and sufferings, problems and pain, trials and temptations is connected to the fulfillment of the many plans that You have purposed for us, in our lives.

Help me I pray, to face the challenges of life looking to Jesus and relying on His sufficient strength and grace. Help me not to repay evil for evil, but to love my enemies, and to do good to those that despitefully use me.

Help me more and more to develop the beautiful fruit of the Spirit, and may an abundance of love and joy, peace and patience, kindness and goodness, faithfulness and self-control overflow from my life into the lives of all I meet, until Christ is formed in me and I live my life as unto Him.
